'69 bay rear suspension

can anybody tell me how many splines i need to go down to lower my bay by about 3" cheers rich.

I would have thought 2 spilnes would do it, dont forget on a 2 spline drop you would probably need lower profile tyres ( assume you have standard profile currently) this again will drop the ride height.

For three inches Id say a one spline drop, and you can retain the standard dampers and tyres.

If you go two, its too much aggro and not practical imo.

Don't go for two splines as you'll keep bottoming out the springplate on the stop. :roll:

One spline will get you were you want to be

:lol: oops should have know better mines only 1 spline down and i did it myself :lol: (must have been too late last night)

agree that 2 splines is too much, I raised my first van from a 2 spline drop, was much smooth ride at 1 spline drop.

In the tech how to's

obviously its a guide as it cant account for wear over the years
